Is there a way to slow down my system?Subject description: Step through videos, games, etc..

This is a bit of an unusual request. I run a fairly old amd system at a speed which I consider adequate. There are times when I would like to slow down the system so that I can see what is going on eg videos, games etc Is there any background program that can be used (preferably one with a speed adjustment) which would slow things down.
Any help would be greatly appreciated_________________Lucid ,Precise, Carolina, Shiba_inu, Lx_pup - all frugal

Thanks for the replies.
@Flash It does not really matter since at the time I'm not actively multitasking. No doubt widgets, such as the clock, may be affected but I could always reboot afterwards.
@L18L I tried htop, but even with the lowest priority (nice set to 19) it seemed to make no difference. I tried to run a flv video in the background at the same time during the test, but that too made no difference. I'm testing by running autoplay in the solitaire game Seahaven Towers. I was hoping to slow up the play of the cards so that I could see how a solution is reached. It may be that autoplay doesn't actually run through a solution, but I will only know if I can get it to slow down._________________Lucid ,Precise, Carolina, Shiba_inu, Lx_pup - all frugal

No!. Figured that out long ago. The statistics file is a text file easily altered in geany. However, I would like to see how the solvable ones, that I give up on, are solved._________________Lucid ,Precise, Carolina, Shiba_inu, Lx_pup - all frugal
